Hi,

Has anyone had this come up on their car???? :?:

Its done it on mine a couple of times over the last couple of days on the motorway and sends the car into LIMP mode (will only allow speeds of 65mph & runs Lumpy)........ :x

Could it be the damp weather????

Any Ideas????? :idea:

I had this when i first got the car.....Check all of the hoses in the engine bay. If all looks ok then get the AA out using your renault assistance.

I think ive heard of it happening once before. Not sure what the problem was though. Get it to a dealer to get it checked out f its going into limp mode.

I am abit nervous about taking it to the dealers.... My car has an induction kit and dump valve on.

It could possibly be your DV mate. Which valve is it? Is it atmospheric?

Can you take them off?

Paul / Dave,

Dump Valve is a K-Tec one - Its been on the car for about 6 months with no problems up till now.

I could take the Induction Kit off - but its a pain in the arse having to take all the battery and box out etc.

Can't really take the dump valve off as I've had to cut into one of the standard pipes to fit it.

To be honest mate, ive take my car with the pipercross induction kit and k tec dump valve to two seperate dealers with no problems at all. Is there two dealers near you? Take it to one and if they say something take it off and take it to the other dealer.

 

[Guest]

I've taken my car into the dealer already with the DV and Ind kit on also...... but, that was for sqeeky seats and sqeeky pedals etc... Nothing to do with the engine.

I am abit worried that they will void my warranty or something if its something serious.

 

[BlackRat250]

I can't imagine it being anything serious. I can't see your i/k and d/v having any effect on the problem.

 

[Guest]

Cheers Dave,

Hope so..... Cause i can't be bothererd taking it all off. :evil: :evil:

i had it happen to mine again this morning, only happens when i got remap on????, been told it might be a hose pushin because of more boost, i got the same dump valve but ran it without and still got same problem. gonna try the tie wrap trick

 

[BlackRat250]

Have you taken it to a dealer?

 

[Guest]

this is the same problem that 5th gear had with there cup when VBH was thrashing it about, let us know what the problem is and we can tell them, cause they where flumoxed and so was the AA when they got there..

Does it only come up with an error when wet and rainy??

What tie wrap trick??

Have you had it into the dealers??

[Guest]

always happens when i have remap, not had into dealers cos i though it a remap related probelm. been told to tie wrap the boost sensor, if u fitted dump valve and taken it out to fit easier you might have broken a few clips that hold it in. try that if not take it in to reno

 

[Guest]

Error

Does it happen only when you are on the motorway ?

I have the same prob on all the reno RS's I have tried to chip in SA.

I hope you find a solution - it will help me a stack !

Cheers
